what we can see from the numbers is that the medicaid enrollment is higher than people thought. it's higher than the exchange enrollment and i think that there is a lot of reasons for that. the states that' that have a ste exchange, the states that are doing the medicaid expansion there is a pretty tight diagram of the states and they are in a strong correlation with the states and efforts to do a aggressive and targeted outreach. going out and looking at the beneficiary, people who are getting other types of local benefits you know who these people are and what their income is into the euro k. getting government benefits. will you reach out to them and say we have something you might be interested in was medicaid? it isn't a surprise they come back and pretty large numbers and say yes we are interested. while those numbers be sustained, like four to one or whoever it is? what we will see is the medicaid enrollment that we have seen will go down into the exchange numbers will go up. but in all what we are seeing is the numbers according to the states we talked to which is pretty
